Story
Wolfie was born in July of 2022 in San Antonio, TX but now resides in Mesquite, TX. She was a kitten when she became a part of the family and has been an inside lady all her life. She has been on many road trips, loves to travel, and is accustomed to bathing. She loves treats and even likes to play fetch (she just forgets to bring the toy back sometimes.) Wolfie is kennel trained and knows how to lay down on command. She loves her personal space but, when she wants attention, she isn’t a stranger to invading your space. Unfortunately, she doesn’t do well around dogs whatsoever but has been a beautiful companion to her humans. It breaks my heart but, my allergies have gotten out of control and so the search for Wolfie’s new home begins. We just want parents who will be patient with our tortoise shell baby and give her a comfortable, loving fur-ever home. We don’t ask for an adoption fee because she is priceless to us and just want a loving home for her.

Story
Kromey was born in May of 2023 and has been an inside sweetie all her life. Her best attribute is her cuddling! She will curl up with her humans whenever she wants to have a comfy nap and when she gets comfy around new people, she cuddles with them too. She has been around one dog buddy her whole life and loves to cuddle up with him as well! Around new dogs, she gets a little guarded but once she determines that the dog is cat friendly, she doesn’t mind being sniffed or cuddling with them! Another feature that makes Kromey stand out is her heterochromia iridis (hence her name) meaning she has two different colored eyes making her enchanting. She is accustomed to bathing and is kennel trained. Kromey is the perfect kitty companion. Unfortunately, my allergies have become aggressive forcing us to find a new home for her. We don’t ask an adoption fee just because she outweighs any price. We just want a loving, caring fur-ever home for her, one that will love her as much as we do!

Story
Meet the cutest cat there ever was: Jasper! Jasper is a 4-year old tuxedo cat that was found on the side of the road when he was a kitten. He was picked up by an adoption shelter in San Antonio, and has been apart of a family for the last 3 years. Since then, he has tested positive for a gene called FeLV., which means he cannot live with other cats unless they are FeLV+ too. However, do not fear! This does not mean that he is sick. Jasper has a very long life ahead of him and is the happiest cat you'll ever meet! He loves spring toys, playing with dogs, is a cuddle bug, and has the occasional zoomies in between naps. His family loves him very much, but due to unfortunate circumstances, his owners are unable to provide him with suitable shelter. He is an incredibly loving cat, and is super playful and cuddly above all else. If interested, please reach out so we can see if Jasper will be a great addition to your family!

Story
We saw him on the side of the road, he was barely a pound and a half when we took him to a petco to just get checked. He tested positive for the kitten leukemia and they told us to quarantine him for 4 weeks and get him retested. He's gained almost 2 pounds, such a loving sweet boy, but as I'm bawling my eyes out writing this, we have to get rid of him because of our other two cats. We are devastated and don't want to euthanize him, but we might not have any other choice.

Story
Plankton came to us by accident. His mom chose us through the random cat dispensing system and we took her in not knowing she was pregnant. There were three kittens and Plankton was one of them. We tried to find Plankton and his siblings a good home but were unsuccessful, we decided to try to keep him and his other siblings while we moved homes and cities. I am allergic to them but we have tried our best in the past year to manage life but have gotten to the point where we can’t financially afford them nor spend time with them. He is neutered and just needs time to open up but is a sweet cuddly boy. All we ask for are good loving homes to give them the life they deserve. This was a hard decision. To Plankton’s future parent, thank you and God Bless. (Strictly Indoor Cat)
